Chapter 1170: Their First Collaboration (6)
Biting her lip, Qiao Lian put on a humiliated expression and hung her head as she walked towards the man with the braid.
The man raised his arm and put it around her shoulders.
But just as the man’s lips were about to come into contact with Qiao Lian, she suddenly shouted, “Stay away!”
At once, she took a step back and extended her arms, waving the electric baton that she had stolen from the man’s waist.
“Back off! If you come a step nearer, I’m not going to hold back!”
Qiao Lian gave them a stern look of warning as she retreated towards Lu Nanze. She said to the man with the braid, “Let us go now or I’ll electrocute you!”
She pointed the electric baton at them as the men took a step backwards.
The next moment, the man with the braid said, “That’s crap! I didn’t charge it yesterday. The battery’s flat.”
Qiao Lian was flabbergasted.
She quickly tried turning on the switch upon hearing this and, indeed, the end of the baton didn’t react.
What rotten luck!
“Hahahaha!” the man with the braid and his underlings all started laughing.
When they were done laughing, the man with the braid eyed Qiao Lian and uttered an icy humph. “A bad tempered woman indeed, but such women have character! Brothers, charge! Subdue that woman, let me show you what I’ll do!”
Show them?
Not only was he out to shame her, he wanted to make a show of it in front of the others?
Qiao Lian gritted her teeth and shook in fury.
As she watched the men approaching, the electric baton in her hand was suddenly taken away by Lu Nanze!
Following this, she felt a tight grip over her wrist. Then the man firmly positioned her behind him.
Staring at his back now, she heard him speak calmly to the men, “If you plan to harass her, you’ll have to get past me first!”
Holding the baton, he charged towards the group.
Every movement he made was rhythmic and strong, as the baton fell on the opponents’ legs. When a man was struck, he would cry out in agony.
Very quickly, with the baton, Lu Nanze forced the men to a retreat.
Suddenly, there was a clear path to the doorway.
Qiao Lian knew that if she ran right now, she would be able to escape.
She bit her lip and heard Lu Nanze shout, “Hurry up and run!”
He was wearing a white shirt today, but now one couldn’t tell it’s original color as it was in a sorry state, every inch covered in either dirt or blood.
She stared at him.
But he was guardedly looking ahead. He turned and glanced at her anxiously, saying, “What are you daydreaming about? I’ll hold them back, you run!”
She took a deep breath, nodded and shouted, “Thanks, Lu Nanze!”
She took two steps towards the doorway.
“Quick, get her, don’t let her run away!”
The man with the braid shouted. Everyone intensified their efforts. With just a baton, there was no way Lu Nanze could hold the men back.
Soon, the opponent had a grip on the baton and the battle was in a stalemate.
Turning around to look, Lu Nanze realized Qiao Lian had gone.
He sighed in relief.
Once he did so, he found that all his energy had been drained, his legs were trembling slightly.
Was he to perish right here today?
He laughed icily at this thought.
The next thing he knew, he heard a cry of alarm, “Stay away! Stay away!”
When he spun around to look, he saw Qiao Lian charging in with a huge kitchen knife.
